Several weeks ago I had a series of phone interviews with an Associated Press reporter the business of mommy blogging. Well, 2 articles hit the wire and I just wanted to share them with you!

The first article, “Store, brands tap into the power of frugal bloggers” ran yesterday afternoon at Washington Post.com and Boston.com (Boston Globe)…and have been showing up all over ever since! Check out the photo of the kids and I (and the little baby bump!) on the Boston Globe article!

The first articles features information about how retail stores are reaching out to niche “frugal bloggers” to reach the ever growing online community. $5 Dinners was featured, along with ConsumerQueen.com, and several others.

Your blog was mentioned this morning on Mixx 107.7! I’m in Centerville too! I’m going to explore your site, because my husband and I are looking for ways to increase our savings each month. From what I’ve seen on your site, it looks great!

Erin, I read about you from Mary Hunt’s article on Crosswalk.com. I myself is blogging about living on less at http://tapofamily.blogspot.com/ , so it is great to find so many of your healthful yet inexpensive recepies here. Thank you for sharing your expertise!

As I was reading the paper today I noticed a story and there you were. Your kids are adorable.
I have a printed version of the Boston Globe article if you would like it for a scrapbook or something.
Just let me know.

Congrats Erin, just stumbled across the article after going to consumerqueen’s blog. This is just phenonomenal type stuff. The exposure that you’re getting is something many people can just dream about. However I believe there may be someone above who’s really looking out for you given your heart to help out others with this blog. Congratulations again. Talk soon.

Congratulations! You’re doing great things! I’m proud to be participating in the Bargain Meals. It’s wonderful to see so many “saving moms” getting together to support each other. Thank you for all your great ideas!

Hi! I just read the “When Moms Blog, Retailers Listen” AP article in the Buffalo News. I’m from the Buffalo area, and lucky me – hadn’t gone grocery shopping yet! In fact – that’s the plan for this afternoon! I immediately headed for the computer. I love the sight and grabbed 2 recipes for this week. God Bless You for your work and your willingness to share!! You are now my #1 bookmark! THANKS!!!!
